Employment & Labor
The members of the LEGUS Employment and Labor Affinity Group represent employers and employees, with members focusing on the representation of employers and management and/or on the representation of employees. Among the issues in which we are experienced are: the recruitment, interviewing and hiring processes; employment and severance agreements; collective bargaining agreements; covenants not to compete and confidentiality provisions; employee handbooks; personnel policy development and administration; employee development plans; employee discipline issues; work force reduction and restructuring issues; benefit administration; grievance administration; privacy policies; wrongful termination; sexual harassment; discrimination claims; and virtually all other issues relating to employment and labor law. LEGUS’ employment lawyers are also uniquely well suited to provide counsel on matters that require knowledge and experience in different states and countries. Our members are not only skilled in preparing employment-related agreements, but also in their defense and enforcement in courts, arbitrations and alternative dispute resolution forums.
